NAME
pamedge - edge-detect an imageSYNOPSIS
pamedge [imagefile]DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1). pamedge reads a Netpbm image (PNM or PAM) and produces an image that outlines the edges. The output image is of the same type as the input, except that the maxval of the output is at least 255 and if the input is PBM, the output is PGM. You can pipe the result through pamditherbw -threshold and play with the threshold value to get a PBM (bilevel image) of the edges.OPTIONS
There are no command line options defined specifically for pamedge, but it recognizes the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm (SeeCommon Options .)
